The viral video has been viewed over 16,000 times and has collected several reactions from the netizens, including former railway minister and Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Dinesh Trivedi. 

"Safari drivers take undue risk and most of the time go very close to the tiger/s which disturbs them, hence they react. Humans at fault," he wrote in the comments section.
